Does anyone have any recommendations for a compatible USB host cable for use with a USB Flash drive?
Would this work for example?

Don't think the nook supports this, you need to have support for being a usb host for it to work. Perhaps all the views are people hopeful for said support?
Buy it and let us know. Hows that for a reply?

Nook Color does not currently have support to host USB devices.
You might be able to get that to work if you write a driver. Otherwise, it's no more likely to work than any other USB device that you manage to connect via adapters.

Thanks for the clarification.
I'm coming from the Archos 101 which does have USB host drivers.

I think that USB Host support is probably just a matter of time on the Nook Color. It needs EHCI_omap driver etc. The folks working on the Beagle Board have a similar chipset environment (only the TS chip in the Nook Color is just a catalog version of but similar to the one on the beagle board). I saw a thread where they were doing some tests for USB Host and i think they are having some preliminary success. I think i'm going to press the Easy button on this one and just see when support gets added.
just wanted to sub to this thread...

Ive been a close follower to the Serendipity ROM and is super stoked bout version 7 that was just released! But because I have not posted anything in this forum because I usually find my answer just by searching, I cannot post in the thread dedicated to Serendipity 7 until I have some posts. I was wondering if MikeyMike01 and the Serendipity crew had any plans on adapting and creating the software and hardware of the Samsung Captivate to support HDMI output through the microusb? Thanks for anyones help!
I could and may be wrong, but i think HDMI OUT is a hardware thing and that we are not able to fix that by flashing software. We have TV out, but i know it lacks full HD support for transferring to a larger screen.
There is or was a micro-usb to HDMI cable supposedly available.

I have no doubt there is a micro USB HDMI cable that is available and will probably fit the captivate.. but will it work? as the captivate does not have HDMI functionality.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
this has been discussed to death in the accessories section. cables are available, phone's hardware cant support video signal out thru usb port
hmmm.... thank you all for your replies. I saw a discussion about a year ago but i dont remember if anyone said they ever tried creating a ROM or other means that would make it capable. If anyone regularly talks to MikeyMike01 about Serendipity or the other developers (Sorry for those of you I am leaving un-named. Some reason this name is the only one I can remember.) could someone direct him this way? thanks!
Hey everyone my curiosity was struck again... After going through some forums about new ROM's for the captivate, and after trying several and stopping on the awesome Doc's Master ICS for the cappy, I have noticed some people have stated they use the micro usb cable to hdmi on the samsung captivate... I have ordered a micro usb to hdmi cable because I have the spare time and will try some of these ROMs some people have stated the cable works on. I will post back my findings probably around the beginning of next week and keeping my fingers crossed that something good will come from this...
Order Arrived!
My usb to hdmi arrived and its samsungs version. I will start trying some different ROMs for the cappy and post if i find any that work. I have a feeling this is going to be an unsuccessful quest but hey, it doesn't hurt to try it out.
is it possible to achieve mirroring using incredible s?
any connector or custom rom??
please do reply!
thanks...
I recall asking this before and got nothing.
It is possible by using the DLNA interface... I don't know very much about it myself, but I know you have to have either a TV with DLNA built in (as some new HDTVs do), or an adaptor like this one.
DLNA means you can wirelessly share media. You can not mirror your device.
Here's something interesting though: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.idisplay.virtualscreen
i saw the original droid incredible do it using a micro usb to rca .... somewhere on google... and there are cables available like these..

any clue?

Apologies, looks like I misread the post...
Is there any accessories, which should I order to connect my Nexus 7 to video projector (HDMI, VGA)?
I thought there was a USB to HDMI cable somewhere... i found it in a other post.
dont have a link..
I was under the assumption the N7 has no video out support?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
You mean anything like this http://www.amazon.com/Menotek-Adapter-IMPROVED-Protocol-Sensation/dp/B005F9W6DU?
So it seems it will not work http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/29/3127278/nexus-7-mhl-usb-otg
Did't know that.. like other things about the N7
so i dont have to order this.
I was hoping it would have usb host aka usb on the go so that I could hook up my Canon DSLR and use this as a remote shutter/video screen for shooting advanced movies etc. It was more of a side wish, but not a killing point, however I really do hope future firmwares would include this.
I'm guessing google don't want any video out accessory because they plan on selling the Nexus Q
no MHL and no HDMI.
basically there is no video-out on the device. sucks but true.
No MHL
Not having MHL support and no support to external HDD/pen drive was a big disappointment indeed.
For the lack of MHL, there might be soon a great alternative: Android Transporter software + Raspberry Pi
For external HDD/pen drive support, I'm sure someone will figure out a solution soon

Hi all, Just a quick question to all of you using tablets these days. First I just got nexus 7 for my b'day and now im on the market for .... everything. I would like to know if you guys experienced some issues with log me in on your tablet. What are best ways to use and utilise the tablet. Also another question is a cable, can i use MHL or Micro HDMI cable with this tablet or is that a no-no? If so would the same cable work with my GNex? What apps would you recommend and generally anything related to this. Any input suggestion or, in the end, discussion is welcomed.
Edit#2 can you connect USB drives or sticks to it, if so how?

MHL/HDMI is a nono yes. The only way I'm aware of it being done is through a Raspberry Pi, you may aswell forget about that now
I wouldn't use LogMeIn to be honest, take a look at SplashTop HD
Finally, you need a USB-OTG (on the go), then a normal memory stick/usb hard drive. Download an App called StickMount(Rooted) or Nexus Media Importer (Non-Rooted) and away you go.
PS - Welcome to the best little tablet !

Thanks for such a quick reply! Shame that there is no MHL capabilities. I sort of need log me in for work purpouses. I tried on the phone and the app worked flawlessly but on the baled graphic was gone and frankly speaking unusable.
USB OTG just plug it it, than my stick, run my app and off it works?
Can i connect keyboard and mouse same way?
Cheers
Anyone know if this phone support video out by the type C port?
Sent from my [device_name] using XDA-Developers Legacy app
If you by video out mean using it with a usbC-hdmi adaptor then yes.
I have done it with LawnChair in an effort to make a Samsung Dex like experience, but while video and screen did work, the total experience was not worth the trouble.

It's exactly like that. What adaptor you use? I was looking for one on AliExpress and don't know if will work. And thanks for the answer!

Hello, i want to know in what ROM you have tested this adaptor. I tested one similar in the ZUI 11 247 but it wont work.
From Aliexpress I've received an USB C adapter (USB 2.0x2, micro USB-PD and HDMI) equipped with Crontel CH7210 HDMI chipset.
I tried almost all app Phone-Tv (wired) from Google Store. No image.
Several apps sayed.. your Lenovo ... device support MHL and HDMI connection...
QUESTION: USB C of Z5 PRO GT support MHL ALT or DP ALT connection? If YES, what type of HDMI adapter I can use? ROM ZUI 11 247 .Thnks
BTW USB 2 hub works fine, also PD

I can't remember, but I used lawnchair app so it was either the 11.145 with magisk or a custom.
I'm in the process of flashing a new set of roms for this device and will update with results.
Best

In my opinion, USB type C is not fully implemented on Z5 Pro GT ( SD 855 is OK, but for USB 3.1 gen 2, Thunderbolt interfaces is too much code to write)
This USB C contain only USB 2, PD and audio interface.
Only FEW phones can use USB C for video out. Personally I use a Miracast - Wifi device for video, USB C only for Keyboard/Mouse/OTG
